FAQ's

Why should I trust The Essential, the brand seems very new?

We get it—there are a lot of supplement brands out there, and trust isn’t just given, it’s earned.

Yes, we’re new—and there’s a reason for it. Unlike cheaper, lower-quality products filled with mystery ingredients, unnecessary fillers, and questionable additives, we were tired of looking at supplement labels and not knowing what half the ingredients were—or worse, wondering why they were in there at all.

As performance coaches working with elite athletes and developing youth athletes, we needed a supplement we could stand behind—one that was safe from banned substances for professionals and free from anything we believed could negatively impact young, growing athletes.

Honestly? We couldn’t find one. Nothing that ticked all the boxes and also tasted good without making you feel bloated and sluggish.

So we made it. After years of trial and error, we finally created a blend that met every standard we set for our own athletes.

Now, it’s here for you. Try The Essential and experience the difference for yourself.

Here’s why The Essential stands out:

Quality First – We use ultra-filtered whey protein isolate and pure German creatine with minimal ingredients. No fillers, no junk—just what actually works.

Independently Batch Tested – Every batch is tested to ensure it meets high-quality standards. We’re happy to provide a certificate of analysis upon request.

Built by Performance Coaches, Not Just a Brand – We don’t just sell supplements—we coach elite and youth athletes every single day in our performance facility. We saw firsthand how low-quality products were negatively affecting recovery, digestion, and performance—so we created something better.

Transparency Always – What’s on our label is exactly what’s in the bag. No hidden blends, no misleading claims, just real, clean ingredients.

If you ever have questions, we’re here to answer them—no BS, just honesty.

How much protein do I need daily?

The daily protein intake can vary depending on several factors, including your age, sex, activity level, and fitness goals. As a general guideline, many experts recommend aiming for about 1 to 1.5 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight.

For example, if you weigh 70 kilograms, you might aim for 70 to 105 grams of protein per day. However, if you're an athlete or engage in intense physical activity, your protein needs might be higher.

It's essential to consult with a healthcare provider or a registered dietitian to determine your specific protein requirements based on your individual circumstances and goals. They can provide personalised guidance to ensure you meet your nutritional needs.

Should I drink protein post-workout?

Many often wonder when and how to use protein powder. While protein shakes aren't a complete replacement for daily nutrition, they serve as valuable supplements. Their primary role shines in the 15-30 minutes post-workout window when the body craves protein to kickstart recovery. Neglecting this crucial period can hinder both muscle gain and fat loss. This is precisely why protein shakes are popular immediately after training, offering a convenient and timely protein source to support your post-workout recovery.

Do your products contain any artificial additives or fillers?

No, we pride ourselves on transparency. Our products are free from artificial additives and fillers. We believe in keeping it pure and simple.

Is creatine safe for long-term use?

Creatine is considered safe for most individuals when used within recommended dosages. It has been extensively studied, and no serious adverse effects have been reported. However, some users may experience mild gastrointestinal discomfort or water retention. As with any supplement, it's essential to consult with a healthcare professional before use, especially if you have any pre-existing health conditions.

Can I combine protein and creatine supplements, and will it enhance my results?

Yes, combining protein and creatine supplements can be beneficial. Protein supports muscle repair and growth, while creatine aids in increasing strength and power during exercise. Together, they can enhance your workout performance and overall fitness goals.
